A 7/10 is basically a complete failure, so why didn't reviewers take my feelings into account before publishing their scores?

I gave up on looking at the number score years ago. When games get dinged for having a lousy story (which I always skip given the chance) or not supporting multiplayer (which I’ve used maybe a handful of times and even then just to get the trophy) a number score is meaningless.

Sure, these are good things to talk about in a review because sometimes it matters and helps set an expectation, much like, oh, just about everything else. Just lay it all out there and let me decide what’s important before I jump in.
